The next morning, two hundred soldiers, eighty strong men, gathered at the threshing floor at the west entrance of the village.

Since the fire burned in the south, Zhuang Shaoyou moved the camp to the threshing floor in the west of the village.

The terrain here is open, the ground is flat, and further west is the farmland of Liujia Village, where the grain is harvested for rough processing.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at these people under him, full of spirit and high morale, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of pride in his heart, these people are the foundation of his own world!

There are a lot of officers and soldiers stationed in those cities and counties, and I can't tell you whether these hundreds of cavalry can take down the county seat, and I can't afford to hurt myself

Use these cavalry to siege the city? Brains burned out, right? I simply don't look for a suitable base for the time being, so let's do it here!

Zhuang Shaoyou sorted out his thoughts and said, "Brothers, we will be a family in the future."

Our goal is to use our blood to fight for a beautiful homeland, to defend our homeland with our lives, so that our children and grandchildren may live a peaceful and happy life! ”

"Whew!" Everyone cheered, and the new strong men were also enthusiastic.

Zhuang Shaoyou continued: "From today on, we will take root here, everyone will be trained, and the veterans already know how to train, so you must teach the recruits how to train today, practice physical fitness and archery first, and then practice after the cavalry battle formation has horses." ”

The selected recruits are all high-quality young people, so although they didn't adapt at first, they persevered.

The veterans teach the recruits one-on-one, of course, it also makes them suffer a lot, the army is strictly disciplined, bullying and bullying recruits is the only entertainment activity,

However, under Zhuang Shaoyou's strict constraints, nothing excessive happened, and the people of this era are very simple, and they are all children from poor families who are not full of snacks, and they are full of enthusiasm after being instilled with great ideals by Zhuang Shaoyou.

The training lasted for five days, and then there were 150 soldiers and horses, and there were more than 70 people and 150 horses left, and they had to be transported three times.

Mo Shi and the others were also tired and miserable, Zhuang Shaoyou was embarrassed for a while, but there was no way, and he had to trouble Mo Shi to help get some bows and arrows to equip the recruits, the original homemade hunting bows were really not good.

On the sixth day of training, on the afternoon of that day, a group of officers and soldiers came to Liujia Village.

Led by a middle-aged man in an official uniform, with a dark face, a pair of small eyes, and a pair of octagonal mustaches at the corners of his lips, he looked very obscene.

The middle-aged man rode on a skinny horse, possibly a mule. He was followed by fifty men who looked like servants.

After entering Liujia Village from the northeast, the group went straight to Village Chief Liu's house.

Zhuang Shaoyou took his subordinates to train in the threshing floor in the west of the village, stopped training after dark, and began to bury the pot to make rice, most of the people Zhuang got some food from home, and ate with horse meat here, and ate happily, and after dinner, the people Zhuang dispersed and went home to rest.

Zhuang Shaoyou sat on the stones in the threshing floor and watched the stars, now there are more than 80 people eating, the food is consumed faster, and the Mo family does not have much grain in stock, let alone Liujia Village, it is good to be able to barely eat.

The remaining food can last for seven or eight days at most, seeing that winter is coming, the soldiers' cotton clothes are not yet available, and it is not a matter of living in tents in winter, all kinds of worrying problems are surging, it is really not a family to know the price of firewood and rice!

No wonder Zhang Jiao's drastic reform at the beginning would have attracted such a fierce rebuttal, but fortunately Zhang Jiao could hold it, otherwise it might not be able to be implemented.

In fact, if Zhuang Shaoyou didn't know that the Yellow Turban Army was about to be destroyed, and he didn't dare to smash all the capital into it like that, there would be no cavalry battalion that can fight now

Thinking of the cavalry battalion, and thinking of the remaining brothers, I don't know what happened to Zhang Ning, Zhou Cang and Luo Lin, have they found a place to take root, and can they survive this winter?

Zhuang Shaoyou let out a long sigh, and Qin Ling next to him walked over and said, "General, why are you worried?" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou was silent for a moment and said, "Winter is coming!" ”

Qin Ling pondered for a while before he reacted, and said: "General, why don't we go to fight the county seat, and if we take down that county, we will have food, drink, and territory!" ”

After speaking, he looked at the direction of the northeast county with bright eyes, as if it was already in his pocket.

It is no wonder that Qin Ling has such an idea, because in the impression of the cavalry battalion, Zhuang Shaoyou has always been omnipotent, like a god, brave and decisive,

Every command is extremely correct, and every desperate situation can find that glimmer of life, and the hundreds of thousands of brothers of the Yellow Turban Army are all fart,

It's just that the hundreds of people in the cavalry battalion are alive and well, and they still have a good taste, so it is not a problem to take down an isolated county town with General Zhuang's magical powers!

Zhuang Shaoyou rolled his eyes, with less than four hundred people? Dare to hit the county seat? What's the difference between that and going to die? Even if the county town is weak and the soldiers are weak, it is still a city, not just fighting.

But this seems to be the only way, you can't fight hard, can you outwit it? Disguised into the city should be outside? Well, you'll have to think about it.

At this moment, a recruit who had just joined ran over panting, and shouted from afar: "General, it's not good, Liu Erhu has been arrested!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou was a little surprised when he heard it, who dared to arrest Liu Hu? Isn't this village the only one within a radius of thirty miles? Then he asked, "Let's be clear, what's going on?" ”

The recruit said, "General, this is so, this afternoon the county tax collector came, and a tax collector came to the village with fifty servants to collect taxes, and stayed at the village chief's house

My family lives next door to the village chief's house, and after we all went home after eating, I heard a fight next door after a while, and I quietly climbed up the wall to take a look.

Liu Hu beat the tax collector, and then was besieged and caught by the officials, and he was being beaten, general, go and save him! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou was not angry but happy when he heard it, and the corners of his mouth actually laughed, I really want to sleep, there is a bed, God help me!

"Qin Ling, pick up a hundred brothers and ride on horses, no, fifty is enough, let the others hide well, don't expose them. Follow me to save Liu Hu! Quick, give you half an hour! ”

Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhuang Shaoyou and Qin Ling rushed towards the village with fifty cavalry.

The village chief's house is located in the center of the village and extends in all directions.

At the village chief's house, a sharp voice that may have been a man scolded: "You dog bastard, you dare to beat Lao Tzu, hit me hard, break his legs!" ”

"Official, please spare him, he is not sensible, I will kneel down for you to make amends, everything in our house is given to you, please let him go!"

"You old thing,! You place, you can't even pay taxes, don't fool me with all that! To tell you, I am very angry today, so I have decided to double the tax in your village! ”

"Official, can you, our Liujia Village has paid taxes six times this year, and we are so poor that we can't open the pot, and now we can't survive this winter if we pay double the tax!

”

"Get out! Old thing, tell you, these taxes are demanded by the imperial court, and if you dare not pay them, you will resist taxes, that is, rebellion, and you will punish the nine clans!

Recently, the Yellow Turban Army has made a lot of trouble nearby, and this official wonders if your son has also joined the Yellow Turban Army? So you dare to rebel to fight Lao Tzu? Hit me hard! ”

"Official, please spare my son, we are not the Yellow Turban Army, we can pay the taxes you said, spare your life!"

"It's pretty much the same, okay, stop fighting, old man Liu, the official will live in your house tonight, go, find a beautiful girl for the official to sleep with me!" Just go! ”

At this time, the two officials grabbed a woman and entered the courtyard, and said excitedly: "My lord, look, what we found in the village just now, how watery, I didn't find it last time!" It looks like a big girl with yellow flowers, and the little ones don't dare to enjoy it, so they are specially dedicated to adults! ”

When the thief-eyed tax collector saw the woman, his eyes lit up immediately, and he walked over quickly, pinching the woman's chin with his hand and inspecting it:

"It's really good, it's very smart, the official is very happy, and your reward is indispensable for going back this time! Come back when you're done eating! ”

The two officials immediately nodded flatteringly.

At this time, Liu Hu, who was pressed to the ground and beaten, suddenly burst out and scolded: "Brutes, you brutes, none of you will survive tonight!" The Shogun will come and kill you! ”

"Okay, you're a dog, you really joined the Yellow Turban Army, someone came to break his legs for me and tie him back, and handed it over to the county commander for interrogation! This is a thief! Liujia Village harbored the Yellow Turban thief, the crime is unforgivable, and the whole village has to raid the house! ”

After the tax collector finished speaking, he turned to stare at the woman again, and said with a smile:

"Beauty, you have served the official well tonight, maybe the official will be extra generous and spare your family, you have to think clearly!"

Then he pinched the woman's face, and the woman was so fierce that she bit him on the hand

"Whew!" There was a scream, and then a "snap", and the tax collector was furious and slapped the woman in the face.

The woman exclaimed, "Ah! I'm fighting with you, you beast is not as good as you! ”

"You stinky **, see that the official will do you immediately! Let's see if you dare to be dishonest! ”

As he spoke, he threw himself at the woman, and the surrounding officials all smiled lewdly, and the village chief and Liu Hu both had burning eyes, but they were all held back by the officials.

At this time, Zhuang Shaoyou rushed to the door of the village chief's house with people, heard the movement in the yard, and hurriedly dismounted and rushed into the yard.

Qin Ling looked at the tax collector bullying a woman on the ground, why was that woman so familiar? Is it an apricot?

Qin Ling rushed over with an arrow step, lifted the tax collector up, threw it on the courtyard wall next to him, and let out a "Bang!" With a muffled sound, the tax collector slid feebly down the wall, spat out a mouthful of blood, cursed indistinctly, and then fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Zhuang Shaoyou's face was cold, and he didn't talk nonsense, he directly pulled out his sword, killed anyone he saw, and his subordinates behind him also rushed in and killed more than a dozen officials in the courtyard.
